Power Pack/Starter Pack Road Race training day

Team3
Get ready for racing

The next Power Pack/Starter Pack training day will be on Sunday 14th January 2007. The session will be a mixed group with 3rd Cat and 4th Cat male riders plus women riders who plan to race next year.

Power Pack/Starter Pack training sessions are held on open roads and with the help of qualified coaches and preofessional racers a variety of race situations and skills are simulated and taught.

Sunday 14th January

  • Exercises based on what to do when racing in a small group where one rider refuses to work. How and when to attack alternately.
  • Riding in groups of four and riding as two competing pairs, so each front rider gives a lead-out up to the finish line.
  • Establishing maximum heart-rate and training zones in readiness for racing

    Details

  • Where: Brockham, near Dorking
  • Date: Sunday 14th January
  • Time: 11.30am with riding to start at 12.00
  • Contact: John Leitch via email at John.Leitch@rbi.co.uk for all information about the venues and times etc
  • Costs: £4 each, there is no need to pre-pay for these sessions, you can just turn up on the day and ride.

    The next Power Pack/Starter Pack training session will be on Sunday 11 February, and John will continue to run the Women specific training sessions with the next session planned for 28th January, more details to follow soon...

    I know i've posted this before, but it was ages ago so I thought i'd give it another attempt.

    Is there any one local to Leicestershire (Loughborough) that would like to meet up for some road rides? It'll be mainly evening rides and the odd weekend.

    There's no point asking for MTB'ers as all of our bridleway network turns to thick clay this time of year!
